First. A big thank you to everyone who’s already bought my I Quit Sugar Cookbook, released last week. Loved getting instagram pics of the dishes you made from it over the weekend…keep them coming. I’ll re-insta them as they come in.
Second. If you’re curious about what kind of recipes I share, I thought I’d share this one…a kids’ treat (I include a chapter of kid-geared treats). Avocado and coconut water popsicles! These things are seriously creamy and sweet… and contain fully nutritious ingredients. A meal on a stick!
You can watch me make them here:

One of the biggest requests I’ve received since I launched my first I Quit Sugar ebook eight months ago has been for recipes that will keep kids happy. So I obliged.
I’ve shared about coconut water and it’s merits before. I’ve also recently written this post about fructose in coconut water. But, in a (coco) nut shell, know this:
- coconut water is loaded with electrolytes, calcium, potassium, & magnesium in an easy-to-absorb liquid
- it promotes good circulation and it speeds up your metabolism – thus helping with weight loss
